How many children does Russell Brand have?

Russell Brand has two children with his wife Laura Gallacher, and a third one on the way.

Their first child Mabel was born in November 2016.

The couple welcomed their second daughter Peggy in July 2018.

Brand announced that he and his wife were expecting their third child in June 2023.

The news was confirmed during Russell’s interview with Steven Bartlett on his podcast Diary of a CEO.

Speaking on Russell’s behalf, Steven said: “You fell in love and you’ve got two children. You’ve got a third on the way, around the corner. That’s a very special love you have found.”

Later on in the interview, Russell got emotional while talking about how much fatherhood had changed him.

He said: “It taught me there is a lot more important in this world than me.

“There’s a lot more important stuff in this world than what I want, think, or reckon. It taught me that love is real. It teaches you everything to become a father. All lessons are there.”

Who is Russell Brand married to?

Russell is married to Laura Gallacher.

The pair tied the knot in 2017 after dating since 2015.

Laura has carved out a successful career for herself as an author and illustrator.

She is no stranger to fame as she is the daughter of golf legend Bernard Gallacher, and the sister of TV star Kirsty Gallacher.

The sisters grew up on the Wentworth Estate in Surrey, with the plush area previously being the home of Elton John and Cliff Richard.

Laura began her writing career when she released her first book The Joy Journal in 2020.

How many times has Russell Brand been married?

Russell has been married twice.

Before marrying Laura in 2017, he had been married to pop star Katy Perry.

The pair were married in 2010 before he infamously split up with her just before she was about to perform.

They wed on October 23, 2010, in a traditional Hindu ceremony in India.

On December 30, 2011, Brand announced that they were divorcing after 14 months of marriage.
